“More and more lately he’d been brooding about this great collective dream that everybody was being encouraged to stay tripping around in.”

Recently celebrated my birthday. With each passing year, and the growth of Bitcoin and AI, I find myself focusing more and more and more on health and longevity.

We have perfect money. We’re staring down a future of more abundant possibility than any generation before us. The number one goal is increasingly just stay healthy, fight aging, fight for a call option on that future.

I did not know that! Makes sense though. His writing, particularly the earlier stuff has a lot of depth. And I think the theme of returning is definitely a salient one. Check out the songs “racing in the street” and “something in the night” from the darkness on the edge of town album. They’re like early Terence malick films in song form. The sense of small-town desperation. Hope and dashed dreams. Middle-aged resignation. All very poignant.

In honor of the new Springsteen film, top 10 Springsteen albums:

1. Darkness on the Edge of Town

2. Born to Run

3. Nebraska

4. Greetings From Asbury Park

5. Born in the USA

6. The River

7. Devils & Dust

8. The Rising

9. Tunnel of Love

10. The Wild, the Innocent and the E Street Shuffle

I honestly don’t even notice the sound of the bitaxe running in my office at all times anymore.

My wife thinks this is crazy.

I view it as my body becoming attuned to hashing.

We are symphonic together.

An orchestral sonic tapestry of work.

You guys, the whole point of the classic Steve McQueen film, The Great Escape, is that ultimately they don’t escape, at least not physically. That life is a series of successive confinements, BUT, nevertheless, it is the community we build, the ATTEMPT to escape with others, that is in its own way a kind of spiritual escape, a freedom of the heart.

McQueen’s character fails in his attempts to escape alone. It’s when he joins the others that they find something that transcends the confines of the prison.

Anybody in DC for the BTC in DC conference today?

Hard to overstate just how much legacy social media and “the algorithm” have contributed to our current cultural climate and accelerated basically every increasingly endemic negative thing.

It’s a metastasizing cancer.
